Earlier this spring, I created this pretty spring wreath for our front door. I’ve kept it up all spring and summer long and honestly….I still love it and wish I could keep it up for fall. The only problem is that it definitely screams “spring!” I decided I’d change that in just 2 steps.
Step 1 for the two-step diy fall wreath
1- Grab the wreath that you want to transform into a fall wreath. Find some mini white styrofoam pumpkins (I found a small bag of them in the dollar section of Target for about $3) and insert wooden skewers through the bottom.
You can break off most of the skewer and stick the pumpkin and about 4 inches of the skewer into the wreath and hot glue it in. I used about 6 pumpkins and placed them throughout one side of my asymmetrical wreath. You can use twice as many if you’re doing an entire wreath.
Step 2 for the two-step diy fall wreath
2 – Replace any elements of your wreath that is not “fall” with fall floral stems.
For my wreath, I removed the spring stems of white flowers and limelight hydrangeas and grabbed some ivory fall floral stems that I found at Michael’s.
They were only $3 on sale which means that it’s only cost $6 total for a fall wreath.
I can remove the fall elements in the spring and put those spring stems (that I just removed) back in. It’s so versatile and I love it!
My sweet friend was at one of our local farms the other day and texted me to tell me that the farmer’s wife found a handful of white pumpkins so she brought them home to me.
Until there are a lot more white pumpkins available, and some big enough for my stacked-pumpkin urn topiaries, I’m keeping my white nantucket planters with the ferns. I think it’s perfect for now and I have fern pieces in my wreath so they go well together.
So that’s it! Just 2 easy steps in my two-step DIY fall wreath. Add your little white pumpkins and replace any spring stems with fall stems.
